Elk Bay

Elk Bay is located north of Campbell River, on Discovery Passage. The Elk Bay Timber Company had a three mile line with a Climax locomotive and fifteen skeleton cars. In 1924, the Elk Bay manager, Fred Brown, joined F.W. Kirkland and took over Elk Bay Timber, under the name Brown & Kirkland (“B&K”). In 1926, when a spark from the Climax set fire to their biggest trestle, they moved the operation elsewhere. Another company ran a logging railway line at Elk Bay, under the names of Stella Lake Logging and Discovery Passage Logging, until B&K resumed operating there during the 1930s.
